Future economic prosperity in Michigan will depend upon the
state's ability to compete in the global marketplace. It will be difficult for
Michigan to contend for jobs without a reformation of its current regulatory
process. Adoption of the recommendations discussed here is essential to
reclaiming Michigan's world-class economic status.

A good quality of life requires not just protecting our abundant
natural resources, but allowing the state's residents and businesses to prosper
as well. In other words, a healthy human environment requires freedom. Michigan
will come closer to that environment by adopting common-sense regulatory
reform.
